The Perils of Social Media

The New England Patriots have one million Twitter followers.

It is believed that they may be the first sports franchise to reach that total, and, for that, they wanted to celebrate.

Every Patriots fan that was following the team on Twitter could retweet a celebratory tweet and receive one in return from the Patriots, as well as a digital uniform of the team with their Twitter handle on it.

All fine and good to this point!

That is, until some JACKASS cracker KKK member/troll (and it's one or the other!) did the same.

So imagine the Patriots embarrassment when they tweeted thanks to Twitter handle IHateN*****s and gave that piece of shit it's own digital Twitter jersey.

The team has since apologized.
